HB 1450 -- First Steps Program

Sponsor:  Allen

Currently, the point of entry for the First Steps Program, within
the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, in the
greater St. Louis area must complete a study on the effect of
hiring a child-find coordinator by September 1, 2010.  This bill
adds the child-find coordinator and the child-find committee to
those conducting the study and changes the study's focus to the
effect of child-find activities in the area.  The bill also
clarifies that the area includes the counties of St. Charles and
St. Louis as well as St. Louis City and specifies that the
child-find committee must consist of early intervention providers
and service coordinators.
